Yes, and there is a bug somewhere. Changing multiple tickets at once works
for some types of changes and fails for other types of changes. If you
think that adding a comment, while trying to reassign all bugs, is
recognised as a modification, I think that leads to unexpected
modifications as a side-effect.
